Copying or Moving A/V Disc Recordings
Tracks you record to disc may have copy restrictions assigned to them. To learn a track’s copy status, high- light the track in the Track List and press INFO. Tracks are assigned one of these ratings:
Copy Free | No copy restrictions apply. |
(or no status shown) |
|
|
|
Copy Never | The track cannot be transferred to |
| another recording device. Tracks |
| of this type may have an assigned |
| retention period. See below for |
| more information. |
Copy Never, | You can transfer the track to a dif- |
Movable | ferent recording device. The track |
| on disc is deleted as it is moved. |
|
|
Copy No More | No more recordings are allowed. |
| You have already recorded from |
| another source. |
Retention Period
Some COPY NEVER tracks have a retention period assigned by the content provider. The retention period is the length of time you can keep and view the record- ing. The initial retention period, if any, is shown next to the copy status in the Track List INFO display (see figure 4). To check how much time remains of the retention period, start viewing the recording and press INFO.
Note: The retention period for all tracks on the disc expires if there is any loss of power to the TV, even momentary. For example, expiration of the reten- tion period will occur if you:
•Unplug the TV from the AC power source.
•Experience a power outage or power fluctuation.
Remember that you can safely turn off TV power using the POWER button without affecting the reten- tion period.
